Summary:

Increased utilization of biofuel coproducts, such as crude glycerol, will allow livestock producers to source alternative feedstuffs and mitigate high grain prices.

The present study indicates that crude glycerol can be included up to 8% in replacement for wheat in diets for weaned pigs, without reducing growth and feed efficiency.
